²⁰ Each year you and your ·family [^Lhouse] are to eat these animals in the presence of the Lord your God, in the place he will choose to be worshiped [^CZion; 12:4–7]. ²¹ If an animal is crippled or blind or has ·something else wrong [some blemish/defect], do not sacrifice it to the Lord your God. ²² But you may eat that animal in your own ·town [^Lgate]. Both clean and unclean people [^Cin a ritual sense] may eat it, as they would eat a gazelle or a deer.
